it’s starving out my center, waning
away from what I’d feared, it’s draining
my pain from down beneath me, waiting
for the pills to take their toll
and my faith frames a shattered mold
a smile was lost today, I stole it
from a love that had only
held spark for a moment
I couldn’t quite handle
what I tried not to notice
but in the end, it will only be me.
in the end, I won’t feel anything.
